Contentious Advice

As previously noted, it is inevitable that at times an employment related issue will reach the legal proceedings stage.  Whilst this may be a daunting prospect for most, as one of Ireland’s most successful litigation departments, we have the necessary expertise to ensure that you are well represented.

Recommendations:

Chambers Europe - The World's Leading Lawyers, Chambers and Partners, 2007.
The firm handles contentious matters, and the team has experience appearing in employment tribunals and High Court proceedings. Clients appreciate the “particularly good personal service.”

Should your company find itself in a similar position, the sooner you seek advice on the next steps the better.

Issues that we can advise you on include:

• bullying+harassment
• health+safety issues
• occupational stress
• unfair+constructive dismissal
• redundancy+minimum notice claims
• employee injunctions.

We have the ability to represent you before Rights Commissioners, before Employment Appeals Tribunals and in the Civil Courts. We can also assist you by providing representation at industrial relations disputes before the Labour Court and the Labour Relations Commission and also in equality/equal pay disputes before the Office of the Director of Equality Investigations and the Equality Tribunal.

We feel that Mason Hayes & Curran has the necessary expertise to represent you and your business, though it is often much better to be prepared in advance of a situation and have appropriate procedures in place.  If you would like to discuss a particular employment matter or your current approach to employment-related issues please contact one of the team members below.
